Did Aminu Mohammed sign with Georgetown? He'd also fit Woodson's style defensively and as a slashing style wing.

I was trying to think if Woodson had any connection to Mike Miller and if Mason would reconsider his Creighton commitment after the McDermott issues this year. Wishful thinking.

I'm guessing also but if he has been the guy for a couple of days, he's either been working a transfer or a 5* and won't be announced until something is done

That would be ideal.

He refers to Jabari Smith as his nephew on twitter and it says in a post on there that Smith planned to go to Alabama and play but that didn't work out so he committed to Auburn. That would be my first guess. 

This would be amazing if he brought in Jabari Smith. Wow!

Also, can 2021 signees use the one-time transfer rule if they wish to get out of an official commitment, or do you need to have played a year first? In the olden days you'd have to sit out a year if a school didn't release you from a signed commitment, but it's possible guys could burn that one-time instant transfer waiver to recommit elsewhere if they wanted to.

Don't know the answer about commits/letter of intent, and I didn't have time to read the whole thing (yet), but it sounds like the transfer portal was designed to remove the school release (that you reference). It refers to that in the past tense...

Previously in Division I, when student-athletes wanted to transfer, they had to ask their coach for permission to contact other schools. If the coach denied the request, student-athletes could make their case to the athletics director.

If permission was still denied, student-athletes could make the request to a designated campus administrator, such as a dean of students. If the request still wasn’t approved, the final step would be to appeal to a committee that consists of professionals on campus and other students.

Those who didn’t receive permission still could transfer but couldn’t be offered athletics aid at the new school.

he signed with Auburn not just committed. Seems it would be a little more difficult to bring him to IU in that case. 

He could get out of it. Xavier Johnson did when he signed with Nebraska and wanted to go to Pitt after Hunter left.

That's a completely different situation. 

I agree he could get out of it. But it's not nearly as simple as if he were just committed.

Yes, he signed. Zero chance he backs up on it.

I wonder why he all of a sudden tweeted that info about Lewis? Did he just now find it out so he’s letting people know, or did he know it already and is putting it out there because the announcement of who it’s gonna be is coming? 

Sorry... late to this party... WHO tweeted the info about Lewis?

Rosemond’s recent Twitter follows. It’s happening folks.

I think it's possible if not likely that we have this guy locked up but won't officially hire him for a while. He is now able to talk with recruits freely but once hired that comes to a screeching halt. It is quite an advantage to be able to have personal contact in a pandemic recruiting environment where visitation on and off campus is prohibited.

Guess who Rosemond has personally trained with? None other than Bruce Thornton who committed to OSU. Have to imagine this would be a possibility now with him in the fold. He’s also been training/working with other 4 star kids as well. Wasn’t a fan of this at first but this guy has some serious connections. Bring him on

I think he should be good

Upon further looking at it, those are his followers, not following

Really good points on watching what the kids put on social media and how it can come back and bite them in the butt.  Presentation would have been a lot better if Darryl hadn't talked so much and kept interrupting Rosemond.
